Auld Fyffee has easily the most experience of these but has found it a struggle to get her head in front. Culture De Sivola has a jumping pedigree so will almost certainly improve on her run in a Huntingdon bumper but the Flat speed of MYSTERY CODE should be an asset around here. She won over 1m2f on the level and ended up with a rating of 80, which would normally be good enough to land a race like this. Old Fashion beat an odds-on favourite over 1m4f at Beverley for Mike Appleby in August but has his first run here for new connections.
